Imagine the uproar in this country

Up to the highest levels of gov't in Mexico they encourage the influx of two million illegal, unskilled labourers into the US. For a country that thinks highly of itself it really takes a lot of crap from Mexico.

Tis a great question. I think the populace feels it but the politicians arent getting the message.

don't wanna face the facts? I mean if you're more comfortable blaming globalization / WTO / starbucks / * for the declinig wages of the unducated, suit yourself.

Next time you book your ticket online to fly to some WTO protest, look around to see what your doing. The chip in your PC is the work of intels R&D, the jet you'll board is made by boing whos currently using WTO processes to curb Europe's subsitdies to airbus and the turbofans on the wings were developed by the largest corporation in the world - GE.

You're so boring. All you did was attempt to make moonbeams extremely generalized statement (It was a single sentence after all) sound absurd by talking about robber barons and fat guys in hot tubs of jello. You no more argued with "THE FACTS" than moonbeam did. Globalization and workers wages is a big, complex issue. I couldn't agree with you more people should look around at what they are doing and what they buy and what that means. But don't turn that into a reason to not fight bad WTO policies and such. Where else will you start? You think that by having an Intel processor in your computer means you can't oppose globalizations destructive practices on the planet? What apathy. That "Love it or Leave it" mentality is such crap.
